Hey all,
After a month of my tank not cycling, my friend gave me an established sponge from his tank. Can you guys take a look at my filter setup and let me know if I'm doing something wrong? The sponge has been in for about 18 hours now and my ammonia STILL hasn't budged (and no nitrites/nitrates). And now my tank has filthy water, is this normal? Am I doing something wrong?? I thought adding established media to the filter would cause an almost instant cycle?
I labelled where I have everything in my filter, including a floss media that came with it, ceramic media, and the established sponge.
